This book was truly awful. Kept waiting for the girls to finally band together and have each other’s backs… nope! They are horrifically mean to each other the entire book, the plot barely exists, and you never grow to really love (or even like) any of them. Light on witchcraft and nonexistent on friendship or hope. Huge bummer.

Major trigger warnings for suicide, EDs, self harm, and bullying.
